Sokaraja is an economy liveaboard cruise boat that operates 3-5 night diving tours in the Komodo National Park all year round where you will encounter vibrant healthy coral reefs, incredible macro and other marine life, huge schools of fish, turtles, curious dolphins and magnificent manta rays.

Built in 2013, this 25m long and 5.5m wide liveaboard boat, carries a maximum of just 10 scuba divers, allowing a personalised adventure in touch with nature that makes Komodo such a special place. The small size and attentive crew make it perfect for island hopping and these trips include trekking to find the famous Komodo dragons, hiking to viewpoints, beaches, and witness the magical sight of thousands of flying foxes in the sunset sky.

The boat itself is well maintained and accommodation includes 2 double bed cabins and a 6-bed dormitory that is ideal for backpackers and young travelers that prefer to enjoy the adventure than to spend big on luxury. Guests share 2 bathrooms onboard. There is a solar panel system to power the fun, and the generator is turned off at night to allow relaxation and sleep without engine sound. The dining area is an open-air communal space designed to enjoy the scenery. The dining experience on a budget liveaboard such as Sokaraja may not be luxurious, but it is always tasty, filling, and provides a chance to try local Indonesian cuisine while enjoying a unique experience at sea.

The dive deck is in the middle of the boat where divers gear up and jump straight off the platform for nearby sites, or board the 40 HP motorised fibreglass speedboat for more distant sites. The boat has both DIN and yoke tank valves. After the dives there are 2 bathrooms with western style toilets and fresh water showers to rinse off the sea water. Then at the end of the day you can relax and enjoy an ice cold beer, glass of wine, or a soft drink on the sundeck with its huge comfortable mattress.
